Sasha rolled her eyes, "Look, Viv, your dad and I just felt a certain kinship with Winston. No strings attached. Having you is all we've ever wanted in this lifetime."

Vivienne, always the planner, said, "After I get married, you two will definitely feel lonely. Maybe having another kid could fill that emotional void."

Sasha snorted, "Just focus on your wedding. We can handle our future just fine."

"We've decided, once you're married, we're heading abroad for a long-overdue honeymoon, making up for all those lost years."

Vivienne paused before nodding, "Kids conceived on honeymoons are said to be happier, aren't they?"

Vivienne frowned, "Does it have anything to do with ancient warrior lineages?"

Sasha shook her head, "No, but in terms of status, that family ranked above those warrior lineages."

Vivienne smirked, "That explains it."
